Overall Review of Signature Healthcare Of Memphis

common 30 reviews mention this

Rehab therapy supports mobility gains

Therapy is a consistent reason residents say they regained strength and movement.

Many residents and family members describe physical therapy and occupational therapy as helping with walking, transfers, and general progress during rehab. Several reviews credit specific therapists and mention that staff worked with patients’ routines and goals to keep them motivated. A few reviews also note that progress depended on needing therapy and that it was the main draw of the stay.

Food is hit-or-miss

Dining quality varies, with some praising meals and others calling it poor.

Some reviews say the food was excellent, tasty, and helped residents eat better than they did at home. Others describe meals as cold, unattractive, or disappointing, including concerns about menus and nutrition. Dining is also discussed alongside dietary support, since residents and families mention diet-related restrictions and meal preparation as part of care.

Staff communication is mixed

Residents describe staff as attentive at times, but experiences with communication can vary.

Positive reviews frequently mention responsive staff, clear explanations, and updates to family members. Some families say nurses and therapists were professional and made time to answer questions.

Care concerns range from neglect

A recurring concern is inadequate personal care and follow-through.

Several lower-rated reviews describe issues with basic personal care, including inadequate attention and delays with responding to patients. Some reviews specifically raise concerns about skin care and wound support, along with ongoing problems they felt were not addressed. There are also accounts of staffing shortages or inconsistent coverage, which families say made it harder to prevent worsening conditions.

Facility cleanliness and upkeep

Residents mention cleanliness improvements, even when they describe an older building.

Multiple reviews say the facility was clean and well kept, including comments that rooms and common areas were maintained. A few also acknowledge the building is older, but still describe it as tidy.
